The competition is tough for the best Italian restaurants in San Francisco, and this FiDi stalwart routinely falls in the top five. The menu is filled with Piedmontese specialities, which means house-cured salami, creamy al dente pastas, and red wines. Perbacco is formal enough to wear a tie, casual enough for a first date, and has a lunch menu that warrants a power lunch.
